“…However in this case phase matching for non-pump AM is possible providing the coupling rate is comparable to the pump intensity, meaning for the dimensionless parameters used here ∆ 1/4. This kind of coupling-enabled radiation has been reported in other coupled fibre systems [40,41] and is always present in multicore structures due to spatial discreteness. In figure 9 we show the simulated spectral evolution of a bright pulse A n (0, t) = 2A n (0, t), B = 1 in an untwisted six-core fibre ring with β 2 < 0, β 3 = 0; sidebands develop around the predicted frequencies for each AM l = m.

Broadband, coherent light carrying optical angular momentum is of potential utility for a variety of classical and quantum communication applications, but at present few such sources exist. We study the generation of supercontinua in a ring array of coupled optical fibres. Short pulses carrying discrete angular momentum undergo soliton fission, spontaneously breaking azimuthal symmetry. This results in a train of pulses with a broadband frequency spectrum as well as a non-trivial angular momentum distribution. These spatio-temporal solitary waves, localised around a single fibre core, emit an unusual form of resonant radiation which can be present even in the absence of intrinsic higher order dispersion, being induced by the lattice dispersion of the ring array. We explore how the coupling properties between fibre cores affect the resulting supercontinuum, in particular how mildly twisting the array can effectively manipulate its angular momentum content and resonant frequencies through the induced Peierls phase.

“…Due to a certain phase relationship between the two pulses, a balance of attractive and repulsive forces between the constituents of the pulse doublet is established [13]. In their temporal versions, they appear in nonlinear optical fibers governed by the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NSE) [14], the dissipatively perturbed NSE [15], coupled NSEs describing twin-core fibers [16], or the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation [17]. There are also numerous realizations of further soliton molecules [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”

We demonstrate a peculiar mechanism for the formation of bound states of light pulses of substantially different optical frequencies, in which pulses are strongly bound across a vast frequency gap. This is enabled by a propagation constant with two separate regions of anomalous dispersion. The resulting soliton compound exhibits molecule-like binding energy, vibration, and radiation and can be understood as a mutual trapping providing a striking analogy to quantum mechanics. The phenomenon constitutes an intriguing case of two light waves mutually affecting and controlling each other.

“…Propagation of oscillating solitons in the presence of high order dispersion was studied experimentally and numerically and very rich dynamics of the solitons was reported [35][36][37][38] . Cherenkov radiation of oscillating cavity solitons was recently considered 39 but the effect of the synchrotron radiation was out of the scope of that paper.…”

New resonant emission of dispersive waves by oscillating solitary structures in optical fiber cavities is considered analytically and numerically. The pulse propagation is described in the framework of the Lugiato-Lefever equation when a Hopf-bifurcation can result in the formation of oscillating dissipative solitons. The resonance condition for the radiation of the dissipative oscillating solitons is derived and it is demonstrated that the predicted resonances match the spectral lines observed in numerical simulations perfectly. The complex recoil of the radiation on the soliton dynamics is discussed. The reported effect can have importance for the generation of frequency combs in nonlinear microring resonators.
